In this specific case, the right pattern is either

	u64 val;
	int ret;

	ret = alvium_read(alvium, REG_BCRM_CSI2_LANE_COUNT_RW, &val, NULL);
	if (ret)
		return ret;

	alvium->h_sup_csi_lanes = val;

	return 0;

or

	u64 val;
	int ret = 0;

	alvium_read(alvium, REG_BCRM_CSI2_LANE_COUNT_RW, &val, &ret);
	if (ret)
		return ret;

	alvium->h_sup_csi_lanes = val;

	return 0;

I personally prefer the former.

If the function was *writing* multiple registers, the right pattern
would be

	int ret = 0;

	alvium_write(alvium, REG_BCRM_REG_1, foo, &ret);
	alvium_write(alvium, REG_BCRM_REG_2, bar, &ret);
	alvium_write(alvium, REG_BCRM_REG_3, baz, &ret);

	if (ret)
		return ret;

	...

	return 0;

If you have to read multiple registers, you can also do

	u64 mul, div;
	int ret = 0;

	alvium_read(alvium, REG_BCRM_MULTIPLER, &mul, &ret);
	alvium_read(alvium, REG_BCRM_DIVIDER, &div, &ret);

	if (ret)
		return ret;

	alvium->value = mul / div;

	return 0;

I hope this is clearer.
